So I bought a Opteka 650-1300mm lens for play enough though I heard they are crap. Here is one of my first moon shots:
You can click on the image to see the full-size version at SmugMug.
I'm going to try a few more over the next few nights. If I can't get anything really sharp I'll sell the Opteka and try again with a better zoom and teleconverter I suppose.
Nice pic, a bit noisy, you could filter that probably. but cool :P

Yeah, I don't think I ran noise reduction on it... it's very dark noise... guess I missed it... I was more disappointed with the lack of sharpness. I'll try again tomorrow though. :-)

The sharpness doesn't seem bad, more the purple fringing that's an issue, for me.

Yeah, the CA is pretty bad too. :(
